The scorecard wasn't signed the day after his retirement (whatever that means.) He played his last game vs. Washington. He benched himself in Detroit. And the day after Lou Gehrig Appreciation Day, the Yanks played Washington.

It's a NY vs. Chi scorecard.

I believe the "retirement reference" comes from: June 19, 1939 Lou's diagnosis was announced, as was his retirement from baseball, after 6 days of testing at Mayo's.

Thanks David. Do you know when it may have been?
